SAN JOSE — Party space in San Francisco for Super Bowl week in February is getting tight as corporations and sponsors vie for glamorous locations where they can eat shrimp, drink various beverages and schmooze themselves into submission.

But as we are always reminded by our most glorious and benevolent NFL overlords, Roger Goodell has the final word.

For example, super agent Leigh Steinberg said this week that he long ago had placed a reservation for San Francisco City Hall as the spot for his famous annual Super Bowl party, which in past years has been staged at such locales as the San Diego Zoo, the Arizona Science Center and a Fifth Avenue penthouse in New York.

Alas, Steinberg was recently informed that the NFL has trumped his reservation and will use City Hall for its own party.
